Here Today......Gone Tomorrow

This was left over from Christmas but thought it'd be appropriate for today.  Here today....and gone tomorrow just like  Christmas was here and now it's gone for a while.  I'm going to be the same way though.  Here today and gone tomorrow - and won't be back for a while now.  I realize I've just been hit and miss on here but it's going to continue for a while longer I'm afraid

I'll be moving next month and so everything is being boxed up.  The stamp room (my happy place) is about 1/16 done.  Yes, you read that right.  I can't seem to get going on the packing of that room but I'm trying.  Seems I get a couple of boxes packed up and it doesn't even look like I've done anything.  Then I'll start packing there and remember something else I need to do in the other part of the house, so go back there and start on something else.  I get sidetracked really easy I guess.  I'll also start to pack something and them realize I hadn't used that stamp in forever or something like that.  Surely I don't have too much stuff!!! 

Anyway, I'll leave you with this card for now.  If I can get everything going like I'd like to do I'll be back around the end of March or maybe April.

Thanks for stopping by..............and I'll eventually be back..............
Lynn

Your card is adorable, Lynn! Love your CAS design! Best wishes with your move. I remember it well - 4 years ago - so much work and it was exhausting. I hope it goes well.

Hugs,

Oh Lynn, I wish I lived closer so I could help you pack. Moving is not easy at any age, but knowing what my craft stash looks like (and probably resembles yours) that task can be overwhelming! I'm glad you found a place and hopefully it's much closer to family so you won't be alone. I wish you the very best with this move and hopefully 2019 will bring you happiness and all good things! Take care, I'll miss you.

Your holiday card is a sweetie, Lynn, just like you are! I will miss you while you are away, but I wish you all the best with the packing and the move and the getting settled in. Don't get lost trying to unpack that craft room again because we will all be waiting for you with open arms!! Love and hugs, Darnell

Hi Lynn,
All through Christmas I have been thinking of you. I am glad that you are going off blogging for a while. It will help you settle into your new abode.

I have been meaning to send you an email but things have been just so busy. Zeenya came back home and was down with Influenza A and Aleeza too caught some bug. Anyway they are both good now. And lots of stuff happening to me which I will not even start.

I wish you the best with the move and know that with time your happy will slowly find its way back.

Love you so much,

Monica

Such a cute card Lynn. I hope that 2019 is a good year for you. Please let us know your new address when you get settled. Blessings and Hugs.

Good luck on your move, Lynn! Moving is a daunting task and especially the stamp room. I tried to take pictures of all my stamp stuff before the hurricane, just in case, and realized how much I have. I could probably chuck a lot of it, but I may need it one day.....

Love this elf! Beautifully colored and a really great layout!

Love this adorable elf, Lynn, and the CAS design is fabulous. You're going to be missed while you're doing the moving thing but I do understand being closer to family. Good luck.

Tammy said...

Adorable card and image Lynn, I love the added green striped paper! Good luck with your move and will be looking forward to your return!
Big Hugs, Tammy

Brenda said...

Adorable card Lynn! I love that little guy and the way you colored him. Love the striped tape/paper too. Lynn take your time, moving isn't an easy job at any age or under normal circumstances. I know you will miss your crafty supplies being packed up for a while, but once you are all settled in with the girls, you can get back at making cards again when you are ready. Big hugs, Brenda

Oh my, Lynn. It is such a project, and I will be facing is in the next few months, myself. The stamp room will indeed be my biggest chore, also. I hope that your move will make you happy. I am not good with change, but I am trying to find the good in relocating. Just know that you will be missed. Sending a big hug, and I hope for your new address when all is complete. Your critter cards will be truly missed. Love this little elf.

Lynn McAuley said...

Wishing you the very best as you relocate to your new home!! I will be watching for your return to crafting! Your work inspires us all!!

Marilyn said...

Great card Lynn and I like the CAS design. I have this stamp set and love those little elves.
Ahhhh… cleaning & packing the stamp room - been there, done that and hopefully you'll be more successful at it than I was.
I totally get it about finding the old stuff and it seeming new... I remember thinking, 'oh, I must use this as soon as I get settled'. Didn't quite work out that way because there's so much other new stuff I had to have!

Good luck with the move! You'll love it once everything is done but while you are doing it, it seems like a massive task. You'll get it done though!

Sue said...

Fabulous card and can't wait to have you back! lots of hugs Sue xx
